Hotel Bernini Review

Mauro and Nadia and their son Alessandro oversee a very amiable, homey set of clean and, for the price, surprisingly comfortable rooms decorated with the odd antique. The firm beds rest on patterned tiling and are surrounded by whitewashed walls curving into the ceilings. (A few have painted wood beams.) Printed curtains hang in the archways of some guest rooms. A pair of rooms have a distant view of the Duomo's flank, and all are mouse quiet, as the place sits atop St. Catherine's house-cum-convent. If you ask, they'll let you go up on the terrace for views of the city and valley. This is a family environment; there is a midnight curfew.

Facilities:
Internet; room service (breakfast); smoke-free rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
